Rear Helper Spring Recommendations for a 2015 Chevy Silverado 1500
Question:
I have a silverado 2015 with the max tow package. I tow a fifthe wheel that weighs 10350 with a tongue wieght of 2050 lbs. I want to increase the rear end either by the supersprings or by the adjustable system you sell that rotates in and out depending when your hauling or not. My question is which is a better option for my needs.

You can use suspension enhancement to help keep your 2015 Chevy Silverado 1500 level but keep in mind that the use of any type of helper spring will not increase the capacities of the truck. If you want to be able to manually control when the system engages then I recommend going with the TorkLift StableLoad # TLA7310. This system will work as long as the truck has factory leaf springs with a lower overload spring. I have linked the instructions for you.
If the truck does not have lower overload springs I actually recommend Timbren springs # TGMRCK15S for non XFE models. Timbren springs do not require maintenance and have a lifetime warranty so they are tough to beat! I have included some links on the Timbren springs for you.
